Look Away Dear Child, Look Away!

Look Away Dear Child, Look Away!

Look away dear child, look away!
The fear pusher is not sane
He billows a cloud of sticky dirt
Which burns like acid rain

It pleasures him to see your tears
The tyrants are so glad
They helped the evil win this time
And care not if you are sad

Curse them, you may curse them!
It’s your choice now, dear child
Power to you to save yourself!
For the madmen have run wild

House of wicked, house of swine
Prepare to be rejected sound!
All good people will arise
And stomp this evil down!

Tyrants are bullies and like nothing more than to perpetuate fear. They, in the end, will not prevail! Keep on writing!
